The new more radical socialist left that's becoming the loudest most powerful force in the Democratic party may do away with the filibuster if they take the Senate in the future ! Many on the modern left deem the filibuster as an unfair racist attack on democracy .. So republicans that are reluctant to use the Nuclear Option to reopen the government because of their fear that Dems will do the same in the future need to understand that todays left isn't the same party they've been dealing with for decades ..
The true power in the Democrat party lies in the hands of the loud, radical, so called Democratic Socialists [Marxists]who are gaining in popularity with the young and the uninformed ! So Republicans are shooting themselves in the foot by not going Nuclear and opening the government ! Because when the new younger radical left leaders take power they will definitely do away with the filibuster and implement a mob rule legislative style ! don't believe it ?? just read what a popular progressive policy org has to say about it !

AI Overview
In general,
democratic socialists strongly oppose the legislative filibuster because they view it as an undemocratic institutional barrier that obstructs majority rule and prevents the passage of progressive reforms. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the largest socialist organization in the U.S., advocates for a "true democracy" where the working class has more control, and the filibuster is seen as a tool of obstruction by the minority party.

The filibuster is a racist remnant of a Senate designed to entrench white minority rule. It undermines organizing, participation, and electoral victories fueled by Black and Brown communities.
